The consensus amongst even the slightest bit objective individual is that FOX is strictly one sided. I’m not sure I could even make a claim that FOX has an idealogical bias, their bias seems to have much more to do with blind cheerleading for the Republican party than promoting some coherent set of beliefs.
Sure, among
liberal individuals, furious that multiple sides of the issue are being reported, sure.
Every time I watch something on that station there are Democrat guests (often multiple ones), liberal views, etc.
I cannot say the same about CNN or MSNBC. What I'm use to on those stations is significant partisan omissions (especially with Olbermann and Blitzer) and moderate Democrats arguing against extreme Democrats with the entire conservative side left out.
Liberals huh? So about 70% of the US is "liberal" now, I guess.
No, but they are being
misinformed by liberals...the Democrats who didn't have to be elected, known as journalists...the ones who ignore WMD finds, count the days and bodies since Bush declared the
invasion over as if he had been prematurely declaring the
rebuilding complete, report only from the 1% triangle of the country that has the trouble, trash our troops, and misrepresent the Iranian-Syrian campaign of terrorism inside Iraq as a popular Iraqi revolt against the U.S.
Saddam was not an imminent threat to the US.
False.
Al Qaeda certainly was and is.
True.
Too bad that group is still actively carrying out attacks on our allies, plotting attacks against us, and releasing video and audio every couple of months threatening us – 6 years after 9/11.
So if we remove two threats simultaneously or if the one who attacked us on 9/11 still has any capacity to attack us while we're fighting a war to destroy their infrastructure, then it was wrong to eliminate the 2nd threat.
Um....nope.
If liberals wanted better progress against Al Queda they shouldn't have let them attack our troops with impunity for nearly a decade and then started referring to the war in Afghanistan as a "quagmire" and comparing it to Vietnam only 3 weeks in.
Something seems a wee bit insincere about the people who oppose national defense at every turn being offended that members of Al Queda (the group liberals helped put on the map by retreating from them in Somalia) still exist.
Had we focused all the resources and energy we are using in Iraq for nation building against al Qaeda and other similar Islamic militant groups, the WOT would be as good as over by now.
Says the party that started referring to the war in Afghanistan as a "quagmire" and comparing it to Vietnam only 3 weeks in. Whatever allows you to oppose national defense at the moment, I guess.
There's enough partisan bickering and name-calling by both liberals and conservatives, here. It ceases now, or consequences will ensue. Get back to the topic.
